Mac you are a beast for still doing the drive after all the pain you've been in. Sorry if me getting sideways or cooking my brakes was a distraction to anyone here lol but we made it home alive. Learned alot about my car today but I don't think I'll be pushing it that hard again when I don't know the road/conditions. I beat the living shit out of the car today, I guess it was just too low for the bumps/roots etc.
See you guys at the next one which is the dyno day, and for those not going I'll see you at T-Hill in November! (ps I'll be jacking some of those pictures for Facebook if you don't mind for the S2ki album.)

I can see that we had fun gunning those hairpins..Marco was a little bit too happy on one of them
I think Anish needs a new front lip

Thanks for setting up and leading Mac! It was fun being behind more cars this time and actually getting to see more action... Lol had a blast! Still super tired and luckily it's my day off and I got out of class an hour early So I'm going back to sleep! 
So I'm going back to sleep!

Marco, you're a fun driver to watch- you had me reeling back a bit after the "A little too much, yeah?!" happy incident 
Haha.. and yes, that was my alumilite front splitter becoming razor sharp as it was ground down. Even when taking the turn at various speeds and angles, there was no escape... the bumps on the last leg was the worst on it.
Good times!
Haha man, no worries. I think we all left pieces of our cars on that road, whether it be tire treads, brake dust, chipped front bumper, and so forth. Your car was smokin'!

Hilarious how the tROlls jump on my ass for driving fast But never on the group drives I do not attend. . Step your game up trolls and flamers. You got caught slippin!
Don't worry everyone I fully support your mountain driving. Just giving a little poke to the hypocritical Monday morning QB's of the territory.

I was still responsible for house sitting through the evening on Sunday. Believe me I wanted to!
Also my star specs are nearly pancake bald. I'd say they lasted about 5k maybe a bit more. Still amazing some are lastin 10k on those tires. I guess that's what separates the boys from the men, chicken stipes and all!
Need to save some cash for possibly changing my apartment in the next month so trying to delay purchasing tires.
